volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 So, yeah, this guy wrote me an email and asked me to get some food when I get back from vacation, and I wrote him back and said yes, I would like to... and then said, I was sadly getting back tomorrow (yesterday- this was two days ago) because I had too much work to play all week... He didn't write me back, I figured he knew I was taking the plane back yesterday... and now it is Friday... I figured he might write me today or tomorrow, but I also said I was busy... I'm wondering if I should follow up with a suggestion for getting food on Sunday... but he also knows I just broke up with my boyfriend... he may be a little worried about being a rebound... I don't know... suggestions? should I wait or should I send him an email? Also, I could just invite him to a party tomorrow night... Dating... sigh... to ask or not to ask... that is the question! silly i know... Link to comment
ghost69 Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 you just got back. he probably didn't want to bother you any further. calm down. you cannot call him? Link to comment
DN Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I was sadly getting back tomorrow (yesterday- this was two days ago) because I had too much work to play all week... This is probably why he hasn't called. Link to comment
volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 i am perfectly calm. i have a bunch of parties lined up for this weekend and work, but am hoping to work him into my schedule... i am just wondering... no... i can't call him... it's a long story... Link to comment
volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 This is probably why he hasn't called. yeah, that's why i was thinking to shoot him an email... Link to comment
CallingAllAngels Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 yeah, that's why i was thinking to shoot him an email... shoot him the email. what the hell....what have you got to lose????? Link to comment
volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 only concern is appearing too aggressive and not letting him pursue me.... Link to comment
annie24 Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 yeah, i'd send an email or call and say you got back, and ask when you can meet up. suggest a time! Link to comment
volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 hey all, i just sent him an email asking if he wants to come to the party tomorrow, pretty light email with some humor to it... saying i didn't know what the party would be like, but it would be better if he comes... Link to comment
volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 thanks y'all, i will keep you posted on the results. Link to comment
volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 I guess that he must not be interested! He cc'd me on some emails about the community service project he is helping me with... but did not reply about the party! Link to comment
annie24 Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 no worries! give it some time! Link to comment
volpe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 i hope you are right... Link to comment
annie24 Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 i dunno - he may have to check his schedule first, which is why he didn't write you back right away. if he doesn't come, then he gets a big X next to his name. Link to comment
volpe Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 Yes! He also suggested dinner... Link to comment
Ammy Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 So he is going to the party? That is great news! Link to comment
volpe Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 Yes, Ammy, he suggested as plan B delicious food, then I asked him if the plans are mutually exclusive... plans by email are long and drawn out.... Link to comment
Ammy Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Sounds good volpe, but why no phone contact?? Link to comment
volpe Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 hey ammy, it's cause, well, it's a long story, i got his email from my ex's brother, i broke up with my ex 8 days ago... so... i don't even know if this guy knows i broke up with him or not, if my ex's brother told him, but i will tell him when i see him, i didn't want to mention it by email, that is a little awkward... so yeah, i got the email by soliciting help about a community service project, i had met the guy through my ex's brother while dating my ex and he was expressing interest before he found out i had a boyfriend, and i was interested too but in love with my ex, or probably not that much in love seeing how easy it was for me to get over him... to make a long story very short...

volpe Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 so we went out and had a blast... had some mediterranean food, coffee, and then he didn't feel comfortable with the party since, it was a friend of a friend of mine, so we went bowling (which was **a lot** of fun) and then drove around... I think a red flag with him is the fact that I just broke up with my boyfriend, and even though I say that I'm totally over it, I think it was probably clear I'm a little raw. I also probably put my foot in my mouth a few times... cause he asked me about the ages of men I date seeing as he is 25 and I'm 29 and I told him that the youngest I dated was 2 years younger then me, but I said it's not about age, it's about maturity, and he has a lot of life experience... and then I said my ex was 31 but immature... so... that was kind of bad... I shouldn't bad mouth my ex, but he asked me about him, seeing as he is friends with my ex's brother and met my ex last week... it might be kind of awkward... sigh... I don't think I handled it as good as I wanted to, which might show that my emotions about my ex are still there a bit, and maybe it's all a little soon and kind of raw. even though i want to move on, i still have love for my ex... but i'm not sad about the breakup and i don't want to get back together with him, i don't know if that makes sense... we'll see, i don't know if he wants to go out again with me, i gave him a hug, but i think he is very kind of formal, didn't go for a kiss or anything, even though i would have kissed him... sigh... we'll see... i like him though...
